CadFaster QuickStep 2008

3D models are considered to be one of the best possible ways of presenting your new innovative ideas or the new range of goods that you have manufactured like vehicles, electronics, etc. These 3D models usually are in STEP and HSF format that require specific viewer application to see or present them conveniently. In such case you may prefer using CadFaster QuickStep 2008 R3 application. It’s a 3D file viewer application that consists of various features for easy navigation. It allows the users to choose between DirectX drivers and OpenGL. The application is capable of opening even the large size files, and viewing them interactively.

CadFaster QuickStep 2008 R3 application supports viewing of files present in HSF and STEP formats. The interface of the program is attractive containing the features to make it easy to navigate through. The project files, folders and the containing folders are displayed in tree form on the left panel and the 3D image is displayed at the middle of the screen. The application supports viewing most of the complex 3D models with its distinctive range of features. It includes shaded display mode including optional feature/silhouette edge line. The application works considering the Hidden Lines Removed display mode and supports orthogonal and perspective projections. It provides you the features to rotate, zoom and pan tools to view the file in a better manner. With the Shaders, you can easily display the graphical effects and textures. Further, it includes functionality for advanced section view and functionality and also supports 3DConnextion 3D mouse. The application is helpful for sharing the complex 3D models, between the reviewers and designers.

With the all the above features CadFaster QuickStep 2008 R3 supports hardware pixel/vertex shaders that help you to achieve quality real-time rendering of mirror surfaces, bump mapped objects along with glossy and reflective elements, etc. The program is given the rating at 4.5 points for the perfection that it displays in its working and the help it provides its users in viewing the supported 3D format files.
